Parents Discipline Overview
Parents Discipline Overview
- Discipline isn't just about punishment.
- People have many concerns about bringing up children in the right way.
- Everyone wants their
children to:
- care about others
- care about the world
- be interested in others
- be kind, thoughtful and considerate
- behave appropriately.
- Some people think children can be spoiled by being given lots of attention. But giving children lots of love and attention means they will be happy and content with good self esteem.
- Children are not naturally naughty. They usually respond to sensible, honest comments which help them understand their behaviour.
- Suggested reading list
of books which should be readily available at public libraries:
- 'Every Parent, A Positive Approach to Children's Behaviour' by Matthew R.Sanders PhD Published by Addison-Wesley Publishing Company, 1992.
- 'Toddler Taming, A parent's guide to (surviving) the first four years' by Dr Christopher Green, published by Doubleday Australia Pty Limited, 984.
